The constitution provides that the presi-
dent shall from time to time give To the
congress information of the state OF the
union. IL has been the custom OF the eN-
ecutye, in compliance with this provision,
to annually exhibit to the congress at the
opening Of its session the general condition
OF the country, and to detail with some
particulars the operations of the different
executive departments. 1t would be espe-
cially agreeable to follow this course at the
present time, and to call attention to the
valuable accomplishments of these depart
ments during the last fiscal year; but | am
so much i'm impressed with the paramount
importance OF the subject to which this
communications has thus far been devoted
that | shall forego the addition Of any other
topic, and only urge upon your I'M.
mediate consideration the state oil
the union, as shown in the present
condition OF our treasury and our general
fiscal situation, upon which every element
of our safety and prosperity depends. rhe
reports of the heads of departments, which
will be submitted, contain full and explicit
information touching the transactions OF
the business intrusted to them, and such
recommendations relating tn legislation Tor
the public interest as they deem advisable.
/ ask for these reports and recon- endations
the deliberate exam inntiOn ana action Oi
the legislative branch OF the government.
There are other subjects not embraced in
the departmental reports demanding
legislative con liberation and Whlch
should be glad to sub
nit. Some of them have even been
earnestly presented in previous messages,
and as to them | beg leave to repeat prior
recommendations. As the law makes no
provisions for any report from the depart
iuent of State abrief history of the tran
sactions of that important department., TO-
gether with other matters which IT may
hereafter be deemed essential to commend
to the attention of congress, may furnish
the OCCASION for a future COMMUNICATION.

The Street Railway.

If orr readers who have often
few minutes to spare desire to feast
their eyes upon II handsome piece OF
workmanship, and that of vehicles
which are to aid in making Spokane
Falls more cttcd as well as to con.
tribute to the pleasure and conven-
ience of the population, let them step
up to the freight depot and inspect
the three street cars that arrived from
the east Sunday and are the property
of the Spokane Street Railway COM
pany. 1t will set at rest at oncs all
doubts, il you every entertained any,
rs to the intention of the syndicate
that secured the franchise upon u street
railroad upwards OF year ago. The
cars were ordered by A. q. Ross, one
of the most active members of the
company, during his last visit east and
were constructed by the Laclede Car
company, of st. Louis. The cars are
modern in all their appointments, and
have been built with considerable ar
tistic taste. They are the same as are
in use on almost all the lines in large
eastern cities. They are Handsomely
finished both inside and out. The
body painted in adeep wine color with
appropriate shades OF ornamentations.
Over the windows is the legend
Spokane Street Railway company"
The inside is finished in light colors,
with patent fare box, adjustable so
~ to bc changed from either end OF
the car. The toplights are OF colored
| glass while there is II bulls eye light
/ ut either end. The cars are double
ends, so that horses can be changed
without the necessity Of n turn table.
| The cars are all that could be desired,
and the road will be equipped for all
| the business that II can do for some
years. Tnc company is in good con
( dition. and more OF its stock is for sale
| II has been through the untirng ex-
ertlons of Messrs Browne and and
Ross that the enterprise has got along
SO far rs it has, and the scheme will
prove ~ profitable one If energy and
vim will contribute anything toward
that end.

LONDON, Dec. 6.-rhe Morning Post,
commenting on President Cleveand's mes
sage, says: THE message will produce u
sensation in Europe as well a. in America,
and strengthen the tree trade cause through

The daily News says seldom has an
American president had more important
lesson to teach The fact is the policy of
protection has been reduced to "A practical
and theoretical absurd.ty. The stone now
set rolling will not stop unit the idol of
protection is broken in pieses.'
The Times SAYS: "tt is remarkable that
Mr.. Cleveland has the courage to ConIro mt

England is concerned 1t Is questionable
whether America will not confront us in

AN AppeAL TO PARTIES.

Both the great political parties now rep.
resented in the government have by repeat.
ed and authorative declarations condemn
ed the condition of our laws which permit
the collection from the people of unneces-
sary revenue, and have in the most solemn
manner, promised lis correction, and
neither as citizens or partisans are our
cOuntrymen in Il mood to condone the
deliberate violation of these pledges. Our
progreSs toward Il wise conclusion will not
be improved by dwelling upon the theories
of protection and free trade. This savOrs
too much of bandying epithets. 1t is a
condition which conironts us, not theory.
Relief from this condition may involve u
sight reduction oi the advantages which we
award our home productions. but the en-
tire withdrawal of such advantages should
not be contemplated The question of free
trade is absolutely irrelvant and the per-
sistent claim made in certain quarters, that
all efforts to- relieve the people from unjust
and unnecessary taxation are schemes OF 80
called free traders is mischevous and far
removed from any consideration for the
public good. The simple and plain duty
which we owe the people is to reduce taxa
ton to the necessary expenses OF an eco
nomical operation OF the government and
to restore to the business of the
country the money which we
hold in the treasury through the perversion
of government powers These things can
and should be done with safety to all our
industries without danger to the opportuni.
